Little Gais Pond

Highlight • Lake

There was no one at the small Gaisweiher pond, even though it was 30 degrees Celsius. So, if you're looking for solitude, this is the place for you. A wonderful spot. 😍

Highlight • Castle

An impressive ruin, worth visiting for the complex alone. But the magnificent views are also inspiring.
